I just voted.  

 

BUT, in my defence.  The only reason they went up in November was because Mr Cinds was doing some work on the loft hatch and I said you might as well lift the decs down while you're up there.  Then when I saw everything lying around, I thought I might as well put them up so he could put all the boxes back up in the attic while he was up there, honest.

So it looks like it's imminent at Cosmo Towers...

But they have to be sat in the middle of the lounge for a while until you "Get around to it"

I remember one year ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,when it had all been a bit manic - I didn't put up my tree until Christmas Eve - my oldest bubby was two - when he work up in the morning to stocking in bed and then came downstairs to a sparkling tree and a pile of pressies - I swear it was truly magical. I think kids are wound up far too early before the big day TBH - 'keep it short - make it magical',

I agree, Christmas used to be about Children, which the adults enjoyed through their eyes, the adults enjoyed Christmas for the children and New Year was for them.
